Following Ola and Uber, the on-demand auto aggregator
"Surge pricing is a standard practice across different industries and it is no different with app-based transport aggregators," says Samar Singla, founder and CEO Jugnoo. "However, we came to this decision following the general commotion ensued by the transport aggregator ecosystem," he says.
Singla added how surcharging is based on the fundamental demand and supply concept of economics, and it’s purely up to consumers if they want to pay more for a service or not, in case of high demand.
"This also helps in prioritizing travel, which means that only people who really need the service will use it by paying a higher price and the rest will find other ways of commuting," he adds.
